In the past, GT6 era, SNAIL did allow for cars of identical spec to be substituted. This was mainly to allow for different liveries to be on the track and make for grids that didn't look like the exact same car. Most of the time it was done was for race cars. With the advent of the livery editor, only the car selected will be allowed. In this case, you must run the Honda version as that is what was selected. This will be the case in GTSport moving forward.

I knew I had addressed that previously and sure enough it is here in Nov. of 2017:
In the past SNAIL has allowed race cars with identical settings to be used just so that we didn't have 12 identical cars on the track. With a full livery editor in place there really isn't a reason to allow any car other than the exact model that was chosen to be used.

And again here in April of 2018:
In past games, SNAIL has allowed different cars to be used as long as the specs were identical. This was to allow the grid to have different looking cars and make photos taken more appealing to the eye. With the advent of a livery editor, only the selected car will be allowed for Sunday night. There will be no exceptions to this policy going forward as long as we have a livery editor at our disposal.
 
Super Formula is quite the machine with 30 PSI boost and enormous downforce. I couldn’t imagine driving one in real life. Real sensory overload!
The Mach Forty is scary to control if it starts to oversteer. You can deal with a little but it quickly gets out of hand past the critical point.
Lots of horses to tame this Sunday fellas!
 
Important League Announcement

The stewards and the BoD would like to welcome two new members to the ranks of SNAIL stewards.

@Rob Brown and @basswerks1 have both accepted invitations to become stewards.

Congrats gentlemen. Seeing how @Raw10_2u baked the last cake in celebration of 5 Divisions, I nominate @TomMang_68 to kitchen duty for this celebratory cake.

You can't mention cake around here without some of the original members thinking about this post. You've got to open up the quoted post. This was posted for a low boost mini endurance race way before anyone else around here had the idea.

@zer05ive I dug one up from way back.

Time: Please Arrive by 10PM EST
Event: Low Boost Mini Endurance


Rules:
Although we're a beginner-friendly league, we expect all drivers to follow GTP OLR Rules and pursue good racecraft at all times. If you're not sure what racecraft is, watch this video for an explanation. It can be summed up in one simple 'Golden Rule' of motorsports: It is the responsibility of the overtaking driver, meaning the car that is attempting to execute the pass, to make sure that the pass is made cleanly and incident free. If you don't agree with this rule or don't think it applies to you, then this is not the league for you.

Diabolic Settings:
All league settings are default unless noted below:
Boost: LOW
Penalty: OFF
Visible Damage: Off
Mechanical Damage: HEAVY
Slipstream Strength: Weak
Tire Wear/Fuel Consumption: On
Grip Reduction: Real
Tire Restrictions: FLUCTUATING
Vehicle Tuning: Prohibited
Driving Aids: Only ABS allowed

Tell your friends

I have read the first post and would like to (re-)join.

@o8_jedi

Here's your official SNAIL RE-Welcome Post!
Thanks for your interest!
Here's what you need to know (and do) in order to join SNAIL Racing League:

We run a clean league by enforcing a strict penalty system based on the SNAIL OLR (which is a modified version of the GTP OLR). We also expect all of our drivers to know and follow The Good Racecraft Guide. Please become versed in both if you aren't already. Once that is complete, please follow the steps below to complete your entry into the league:

1. You start a conversation and add @CoachMK21, @JLBowler, @nmcp1,@zer05ive ,@Rednose58,@MajorBlixem & @SAMHAIN85 as participants.

The conversation title should be "Request To Join".

2. SNAIL Administrators will respond with specific instructions on what you need to accomplish to join the SNAIL [Spec] Racing.

3. Place the following links (URLs) in the favorites (or bookmarks) in your web browser for quick reference. Please make every effort to read and understand the following links. Over the years a great deal of time and effort has gone into creating this league and we would like nothing more than to have you but we ask that you take the time and effort to do your homework. 99.9% of any question you may have about SNAIL can be found in the posts below.
4. You drive fast and clean on Sunday 👍

Again, the original post has everything you need to know about what to expect on Sunday night and what you will need to have completed in order to be competitive. If you have any questions, please feel free to post your question on the thread.

During the week we run a number of different events, we encourage all SNAILs to join as many as possible.
Welcome to SNAIL :cheers:
 
I want to archive the April 2016 Season data tomorrow and the following data is not entered yet:

D1: April 7, April 14, April 21, April 28
D2: All done thanks
D3: All done thanks
D4: April 21, April 28
D5: April 21, April 28

If you can do it ASAP it would be nice. It will greatly impact the the SNAIL Invitational Event if we can't get this entered in time.
